Recommendation The Asian American Quality of Life Advisory Commission recommends that the “Equitable Chamber Funding Model,” developed by the City of Austin’s Economic Development Department (EDD), consider factors that do not disproportionately impact the Greater Austin Asian Chamber of Commerce (GAACC) Description of Recommendation to Council WHEREAS, the Asian American Quality of Life (AAQoL) Advisory Commission was created to advise the City Council on issues related to the Asian American Resource Center and provide on-going guidance and support for the City's Asian American Quality of Life Initiatives, and WHEREAS, EDD is developing an “Equitable Chamber Funding Model” for funding Multi-Ethnic Chamber Alliance (MECA) Chambers, and WHEREAS, Asian Americans are the fastest growing population in Austin/Travis County, which should result in higher Race/Equity Factor portion of the funding model, and WHEREAS, the funding model should include a “language factor” for which the GAACC should be credited for supporting over 20 Asian languages in their operations, and WHEREAS, the GAACC is instrumental in attracting international business investment and trade to Austin, and WHEREAS, in recent years, the GAACC has helped address increasing violence against Asian Americans and Asian American businesses, and WHEREAS, many immigrants are first generation business owners in need of support from GAACC, and WHEREAS, refugees may be more likely to open businesses, instead of applying for jobs, due to hiring qualifications and language barriers, and WHEREAS, at the February 4, 2021, City Council meeting, Councilmember Alter pointed to weaknesses in the “Funding Model,” suggesting that it should be modified to include: (1) meaningful language factors, (2) updates based on current census data, and (3) no disproportionate reduction in funding existing Chambers, and WHEREAS, on March 25, 2021, Council directed City staff to consult with the Chambers in advancing economic opportunity in Austin and submit a base funding model to Council by November 2021. NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the AAQoL Advisory Commission supports adjusting certain equity factors in the EDD “Equitable Chamber Funding Model” as directed by City Council to include a meaningful “language factors” and more focus on support for businesses than household income, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Commission recommends limiting the disproportionate fiscal impact to the GAACC, estimated to be $48,000 annually.
2020‐2021 Budget Recommendations Root Cause Analysis – Asian perspective missing from equity initiatives Story: What did you hear from the community? Recent events including the ongoing pandemic, Winter Storm Uri, and rising anti‐Asian violence have brought to the surface the many challenges facing the Asian community in Austin. During Winter Storm Uri, there were few protocols in place to get translated materials out to the community regarding cold weather resources, water and food distribution, and the recovery process. While the community volunteers stepped in to provide the much‐needed translations, much of the work was not completed until five days after the initial power outages. Issues around equity go far beyond lack of access to information and resources due to limited English proficiency of some community members. A significant percentage of Austin’s Asian American community are first generation immigrants from many disparate regions. These immigrant communities have a different set of needs, including access to legal services and navigating the health care system, from second generation+ Asian Americans. Problem: What is the problem you identify? In a few short years, the Equity Office team, in coordination with the Joint Inclusion Committee (JIC), has made great strides in by providing equity training to City staff and others, implementing new equity‐ based programs, providing leadership during the Reimagining Public Safety process, and much more. However, due to a lack of capacity, the Equity Office has been unable to take on additional initiatives for the Asian American Community. Moreover, with anti‐Asian American violence on the rise, it is imperative that the City place additional focus ensuring their safety as well as all BIPOC communities in Austin. How does the problem show up in your community? Who is most impacted by the problem? Although Asian Americans are the fastest growing community in Austin, department‐level data consistently shows a low participation rate in many City programs and services. In addition, there are hard‐to‐reach pockets of immigrants that stand to benefit from increased access to City services. Lack of knowledge about City services and language barriers are contributing factors and require a set of outreach strategies to overcome. The stakes are even higher during an emergency event when a lack of access to services and information can have potentially deadly outcomes. Members of Austin’s Asian American community are also concerned about rising anti‐Asian hate. Asian American community leaders have called upon the City to track these types …

From: To: Cc: Subject: Date: Attachments: Terry Mitchell Rivera, Andrew Rhoades, Wendy; Myra Goepp Planning commission speaker Tuesday, May 18, 2021 9:55:10 AM image001[53].png *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Andrew, I have been out of town for several days and realized that the Goodnight zoning is coming up on the Planning Commission agenda tonight: I realize this is too late for me to sign up and speak, but I wanted to register my support for this zoning case: C814-04-0187.02.SH – Goodnight Ranch PUD – 2nd Amendment; District 2 Here are my reasons for supporting this request: As a nation, the median new home sales price was $397,000 last month. That means that households making $110,000 can barely qualify. If interest rates climb to 4.5%, households must make around $120,000 to qualify. If interest rates go to 6%, households will need to earn about $132,000. In Austin, the median new home price is higher. The median “existing home price” (always lower) is $425,000 in the entire metro area and inside the City is $515,000. That means that a household must around $116,500 to afford the median existing home in the entire metro area, or about $137,750 to afford the median home price inside the City limits. This requested amendment allows Goodnight Ranch to provide a denser housing product that will reach households earning around $35,000 and up. Our company is seeking to provide this housing. It is an incontrovertible fact that to lower price of housing, a developer has just two tools – the developer can increase the density (that is what we are doing) and, second, make the units smaller (again, we are doing this). By using both of these strategies, we are seeking to serve the majority of our households, not just the top 20 to 30% of our households.

Nuestra area es muy tranquila y tiene un muy buen hambiente familiar creo que un parque recreacional seria una major opcion, Our area is very quiet and has a good family atmosphere. I think a recreational park would be a better option. Además los caminos no están bien diseñados para soportar el aumento de trafico con el transito de vehiculos acutal. Furthermore, the roads were not designed to withstand the increase in traffic with the vehicles currently on the road. Hay demasiado accidentes. There are too many accidents.
Zoning Change opposition statement from Kristina & Jeff (Thanks to Kristina for summarizing the below statement): As an individual home-owner in the affected area, I am opposed to allowing a rezoning of the property in question, to MF-4. Based on all of the provided information, I do not feel this level of rezoning request is a good match for our surrounding SF neighborhood. It would not compliment, nor enhance the immediate area, & would inevitably produce more strain, on existing issues/concerns. I certainly do not want to ruin the potential chances of my fellow neighbors securing a promise, & solution to their privacy concerns, or current flooding issues caused by this property. However, I do not agree that a moderate to high density, 4-story structure (much less three, 4-story buildings, in addition to 2 & 3-story units) is the right fit, for our single family, 1-2 story neighborhood. I understand the purpose of building housing on main arteries. Currently the main artery, this proposed property feeds on to (S.1st), is already inundated, often making it extremely difficult to turn left. The required streetlight for the development serves only to benefit itself, & Great Britain, not the closest neighborhood surrounding the proposed area. The lesser, east/west connecting streets (Dittmar & Ralph Ablanedo), are both just 2 lanes, & not sufficient for the added traffic burden this development would bring. Additionally, Ralph Ablanedo has 2 EMS stations, & Dittmar already has a choke point on the bridge over the Boggy Creek watershed. Neither street would benefit from traffic backing up. Without improvement to the city’s infrastructure, concerns remain regarding stress added to the area’s already inadequate drainage. While potential on-site solutions may be addressed by the developer, regarding the directional flow of sheeting (to alleviate current, direct neighbor flooding), the overall estimated volume would only potentially be decreased by 10%. Output is still fully being directed to the cul-de-sac on Orr. We have already seen flooding in this area, as well as over Mario, without the additional impervious cover of the new development. Personally, I intentionally opted to purchase a home in a neighborhood zoned for single family, with mostly homeowners. Even rental homes are still single-family dwellings. I greatly value the personal & financial investment my fellow neighbors have made, in our neighborhood. An apartment complex, with 100% rental units, will only provide our neighborhood with an eternal ebb & flow …

May 18, 2021 ZAP Question and Answer Report B-01 Commissioner Denkler B-02 Why is the impervious cover listed as 50% for SF in the impervious cover table? Shouldn't it be 45%? B-03 C14-2020-0151 - 8401 - 8407 South 1st Street; District 2 Commissioner Smith: 1. I understand the homeowners in the vicinity of Orr Drive and Beaver Brook Lane currently experience flooding in connection with 2-year storm events. The applicant has proposed the following drainage improvements in connection with the proposed multifamily project. a. Regrade. Regrade the site along the north and east property lines and construct a retaining wall system at the perimeter to prevent water from sheet-flowing onto neighboring properties. The retaining wall system consists of a rock wall approximately 3’ in height, with a 6’ solid wood fence on top (total of 9’ high). b. Reroute. Provide a drainage easement along south and east property lines to redirect and slow sheet flows that are otherwise traveling unabated across the subject property. c. Improve Orr Drive inlet. Rework existing inlet at Orr Drive and provide a level-spreader that will limit stormwater within the right-of-way, thereby preventing it from surging onto neighboring homeowners properties during a 100-year flood event. d. Overdetain. Construct a subterranean detention pond onsite that is oversized more than required by City Code to capture on-site flows, in addition to reducing current off- site peak flow rates by 10%. Please comment as to whether the above drainage improvements address existing drainage issues and will improve the existing drainage condition experienced by neighbors located adjacent to the Property along Orr Drive and Beaver Brook Lane. Staff Response: The attached drainage area map shows the drainage for the proposed site at 8401 S 1st. Currently the site drains directly into the residential houses to the north. The proposed development, which you can see highlighted on the second sheet, is currently proposing to capture all flows and release them into the right of way on Orr Drive. This will completely take drainage off of the residential lots that drains directly onto their properties. They also propose to decrease the total flow that drains through their site. However, the site proposes to increase flow at Orr Drive which would require a waiver. As part of the drainage criteria manual requirements, there should be no increase in point discharge from any point of the development. The engineer has met with a …
